Overall Reviews at Ingles Markets
3.0
Temporary job
Have to deal with rude management and customers. Some customers are absolutely amazing but many times I have been verbally or physically harassed by older male customers. In the beginning it was a great job and they do well with working with your schedule. Over time the environment becomes quite toxic.
ProsCo-workers
Conslow pay, no benefits, small room for promotion

Good starter job
Worked at a few different locations and all were basically the same. Coworkers rarely want to help with different areas, customers treat you lowly and it's almost impossible to get more than the 25 cents yearly raise or full-time employment. If you manage to get full-time you do get 1 week paid vacation after being full-time for a year and 40 hours holiday and sick pay immediately. Unfortunately, sick pay can only be used if you. have a doctor's note for 5 consecutive days. Overall it pays the bills (barely) but isn't somewhere where you can move up or make a career.
Prospaid time off, flexible schedules
Conslimited benefits, low pay

Just an okay place to work
When working at Ingles Market, I found myself to be at a stand-still and no way to move up or advance. The people were nice, however some of the management styles were not something that I was comfortable with. I found myself taking on more loads of work for other people while having very low compensation. Though I met some great people and formed great friendships, Ingles was a good starting job for a high school senior/young working college student.
ProsPeople
ConsPoor hours, low pay, subpar management

Work is easy, certain store management is childish
Overall the job is quite simple and the customers are friendly for the most part. However certain employees/management act extremely childish and set up the entire social interactions between other employees to be similar to that of young, immature teenagers, despite them being "adults".
In short, the company is alright, just certain locations have immature employees/management
ProsEasy work environment
ConsChildish employees/management

Ok for a beginner
Ok to start out but hard to move up without someone leaving. Hard to get full time.

Busy, productive day while working as shift leader on Boar's Head meatcase
My typical day at work starts at an upbeat pace at 06:00 and ends, likewise, at 14:30. The pace rarely slows! I have learned to work in a group with multiple unmotivated co-workers, which has been my greatest challenge. The hardest part of the job is conveying important messages to the management team that is on different levels of communication and knowledge about current events/circumstances. On the contrary, the most enjoyable part of the job is when a customer expresses sincere gratitude for helping him/her, whether or not the request is large or small. It makes me happy to know that my customer is happy!
ProsBreak time provided
ConsInconsistent work schedule, lack of communication on multiple levels

Baker is fun, enjoyable, and productive
I loved working in the Bakery, not the Deli. I know what to do and do what is needed. I have learned how to work a cash register. And the hardest part of the job is doing too many things at once.
ProsGet a pay check every week and keeps me busy during the week, meet new people
ConsPay is low.

Deli Customer Service
I like working with the customers day by day. I have met many interesting people (customers and co-workers). It is a totally different experience than working in the corporate world for the past many years. I enjoy dealing with the customers/public. Customer service is my highest priority regardless of what posistion I hold. My management has been flexible with my schedule which I really appreciate. The hardest part of the job has been that my manager has had to cut hours and there aren't enough people to fill all the positions. I try to stay to fill the spots, but need to watch my hours. The most enjoyable part of my job is helping people. I worked in IT and helping people was the main part of the job. I know working at a deli is not the same, but customer service is customer service. It's all about making the customer feel comfortable and want to come back.
Prosflexible schedule
Constoo few employees
